Description: "If the Christian missionary enterprise is to be relevant, there has to be a radical reconsideration not only of Christian missions, but of the church's calling of mission to the whole world. ... In five brief chapters treating the crisis in missions, the basis, aim, and work of the mission enterprise, the author develops the thesis that there must be a dynamic relationship between theology and missiology. ... It is in this mutual relationship between missiology and theology Gensichen sees the possibility of transforming the crisis and criticism of missions into constructive action."--Back cover.
